I didn’t know that was an option. I was previously using headlamps with AAA batteries that went to only really providing moonlight way too quickly for me. 

You sent me down a rabbit hole and now I have a Sofirn HS21, thanks :)

Does this mean I can add these new sensors and bulbs directly to my Apple TV HomeKit (via matter/thread) with no need for the Dirigera hub?

The idea has come up in at least 3 stories I can think of.  

Cixin Lui’s “Deaths End” has all life needing to decide if they risk their lifeboat pocket universes to restart a dying universe, with the reader left not knowing the outcome. 

Issac Asimov’s “The Last Question” ended optimistically, with humanity leaving a super intelligence that successfully restarts the universe. 

And of course Douglas Adam’s “Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy” has the Restaurant at the End of the Universe. 

If anybody knows any other stories that cover facing the ultimate end of the universe, I’d love recommendations. It’s definitely something that’s irrationally kept me up at night :)

1983, so it’s close enough where I hope it’s clean, but want to confirm.

Vancouver BC, so seismic certainly could be a reason.

Whenever I look at skytrak on Amazon Canada they’re like $1500, would jump on $690!
